Mini 622 - Mind Screw Mafia - Das ist alles!

Mind Screw Mafia


"What is insanity to those who understand it not?

What is reality to those who cannot see it?

Each of you shall wake up to a reality unlike any you have known, a land of dreams and nightmares, a shifting superposition of aligned states. A place where technobabble is truly explanation. A reality where the rules themselves seem resistant to discovery.

Some of you will learn to adapt. Some of you... won't.

Do you trust your memories of what has worked before? Are you willing to guess as to what's really going on? Can you find those who would impose their twisted view of reality on you before time runs out?"

Tarhalindur Mostly Mountainous - Frequently Asked Questions


1) What the fuck is going on here?


That's a very good question, isn't it?

2) What do you mean, you can't tell me any of the other rules?


Exactly what I said. What are you, illiterate?

3) So should I assume that there aren't any rules at all?


Not necessarily. I recommend you look up a little piece of philosophy called Pascal's Wager. It might be somewhat relevant to this situation.

4) But you're not God!


And how do you know that, again?

5) Will you at least tell us how many votes it is to lynch?


Did I not say that I cannot tell you any of the other rules?

6) When is our deadline?


Once again, I would like to remind you that I cannot tell you any of the other rules. Don't worry, only a bastard Mod would let a deadline sneak up on you without any warning...

... hmm, maybe you should lynch really, really quickly.

7) I saw your ruleset in Tarhalindur Mostly Mountainous. Can I assume that your rules here are similar?


You might think that. I couldn't
possibly
comment.

8) What the heck is this "Rules Infraction" I see added onto my post?


It might be an indicator that you screwed up and broke the rules somehow. It might be the result of a game mechanic.

Or, it might be that your Mod is a bastard Mod and is just placing "Rules Infraction" at the end of random posts.

You decide!

9) Why are you not allowed to tell us any of the other rules?


I am not at liberty to reply to that question, either.

10) Why are you saying that these are the Frequently Asked Questions for Tarhalindur Mostly Mountainous when this is Mind Screw Mafia?


... *sigh*

Figure it out yourself.

It is now Confirmation Stage. Role PM's are going out. Players whose role allows them to talk privately may now do so. The game will begin when all confirmations are in.

vote: yos2
'cause he's the only player here I've played with before.

so I'm going to go ahead and guess that right now, we have 4 rules. Anyone think otherwise?
Now, life is civilized. Once there was a city, barbaric in its ways. Yet, they were an empire. But even before that, they were two brothers. They fought. Remus said ow, and it all began.

I did not.

Also,
Vote: Battousai
, because he's first alphabetically and that's my thing.

FoS count is worrying me, because I never use those things.

Battousai: no, my PM doesn't include any rule, as far as I can gather.

I have a question of my own, though: does everybody's role include a name and something extra in parentheses?

I'm not sure this is a good idea...

For one thing, if a rule is in your PM, is this rule part of your role? If you die, do the rules of the game change?

Well, I think you'd want to know if the pro-town role PM looks like yours, yes.

The point I was making is that the question you were asking is not a good question at this point, becuase it dosn't give the town any information but makes it easier for scum to fake roleclaims.

It's hard to know since I don't know what the exact rules for this game are, but if I was modding, that question would also get you a warning for being a little bit too close to quoting your role PM, FYI.

Come on, it either has one or it doesn't. From Battusai's question I gather it should be pretty obvious.

Yos, if this game's rules bear any resemblance to Tarh's previously modded game's rules, paraphrasing role information shouldn't be a problem:
Tarhalindur Mostly Mountainous Rules wrote: <4> Quoting private communications (role PM, mason conversations, etc.) or pretending to do the same will result in a modkill. Paraphrasing, however, is not only acceptable but encouraged unless I explicitly say otherwise.
This stance over paraphrasing is entirely subjective from the mod's perspective, therefore I don't think Tarh would radically change his opinion about it in between games.

About the question, you're right, I see it now.
Noone else answer my question

I don't think I'm allowed to tell you the rule, as it's a special ability my role has, I think. But if I die, the rule will not change (to give you a hint, it's not really a rule as you cannot be in fraction of it. It's more like an extra information). I could explain it in two words, but I would prefer that everyone answer my question first.
